These
shocking statistics come from recent studies on the epidemic of sexual assaults
that plagues our society today. Our goal at Family Watchdog is to provide you
with the information you need to protect your loved ones. Our service allows you
to view known registered offenders and predators in your area. Knowing who these
people are and what they've done provides you with your best defense to protect
your family - awareness.

We invite you to use our free service to locate
registered sex offenders in your area. Just enter an address and we'll show a
map. You can click on the squares that appear and see photos (where available)
addresses, convictions and other information about the offender.

Our
notification service is very simple. You specify addresses that you
want to watch and the distance around those addresses. We do the rest. We can also monitor specific offenders as well.
We update our data daily from multiple state sex offender registries. As soon as a
convicted sex offender registers an address in your area, we will alert you.
It's that easy.
